I've been with you for several years now and have always enjoyed your videos Wes.Recently, I got pushed out of my svc. manager position of 20 years at the local Ford dealer here in small town Texas. Big corporate company bought em out. Anyway, turns out it was a good thing. I've opened my own shop. I see you use AE Tools and computers. I got a VCM3 and IDS/FDRS with the subscription from Ford through them. Good people, although Cody sure did push to get me to buy a $3800.00 laptop of theirs! (didn't buy it) They have a great tech assist team there. Anyway, ironically, as I was watching your video I got a text from a good customer/friend that had his 2004 6.0 F250 being towed in for a no start after hot soak. I'm pretty sure he's got a high pressure oil leak... Keep up your weekly videos Wes, you have a fan base that would be seriously disappointed if you didn't!! CHEERS

Running shoe recommendation. New Balance 990's. V... whatever they're up to now. Think I had V3's and V4s. Try to find a New Balance store, get your foot measured. and get them there. They're made in the USA. I put a BUNCH of miles on mine. And after I had ran them out of shape for running I wore them as just normal use shoes for several years afterward. Just replaced the insoles, which were fairly inexpensive as well. The shoes themselves will probably run you ~$175+ ish for the pair. But for me they were money VERY well spent.

I remember when I quit doing your kind of work in the mid-80's. One of the reasons I quit was lack of access for maintenance or repair, and the frustration that went with it. Apparently, I had a cake walk compared to what you have to do. From all appearances, no manufacturer gives one iota of thought to how it will be repaired in the future. If you have to pull the engine to change the oil, f*** it. Continue on. Some of it is past being absurd. Your a better man than I am, Wes.

When you change/drop the oil on a 6.0L, do the filter FIRST. There is a check valve that is held closed while the filter element is in place, thus holding oil. Once you remove the filter element, the oil (old/used oil) in that housing can then drain down into the pan.
